Senior Secondary - Year 11 and 12

Ravenshoe State School offers all graduates the opportunity to achieve one or more of the following to give them the best start in life after school: 

  • a Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE) or a Queensland Certificate of Individual Achievement (QCIA);
  • an appropriate ATAR to enable university entrance and/or
  • a clear Vocational Education and Training (VET) pathway to employment, and/or
  • the skills to achieve direct employment post school, and/or
  • alternative pathways for some students with special needs. 

 

Students select 1 subject from each line. Ravenshoe State School can also support students with school-based apprenticeships and traineeships.

Subjects in blue are Applied Subjects. Applied subjects are more practical, focus on skills for vocational training and work, and do not have external exams.

Subjects in green are General subjects. General subjects are more academic and suited for university entry, featuring external exams and a strong theoretical focus.

Subjects in red are Vocational Education and Training subjects. Students can obtain a nationally recognised certificate. Ravenshoe State School works closely with several VETiS providers and other training organisations to add to our VET offerings in the Senior School.

Subjects in purple are Short Courses which are one-unit courses of study that are suited to students who are interested in pathways beyond school that lead to vocational education and training or work.​

Students can also continue to access to instrumental music lessons (brass, percussion and woodwind).
